The Mets plan to decline Frazier's team contract option Wednesday, Tim Healey of Newsday reports.
EDGE Analysis
Frazier was traded from the Rangers to the Mets in August of 2020, but he'll now search for a new club after his contract was bought out by New York for $1.5 million. The 34-year-old had a career-worst .684 OPS with four home runs and 12 RBI in 2020, and he'll likely have to settle for a part-time role to begin the 2021 campaign.

Frazier isn't starting Game 1 of Saturday's doubleheader against the Nationals.
EDGE Analysis
Frazier was slated to play a bench role for Friday's contest before it was rained out, and he'll remain out of the lineup for the first game of Saturday's twin bill. Luis Guillorme will serve as the third baseman during the matinee.

Frazier went 2-for-4 with a two-run home run in Wednesday's 8-5 loss to the Rays.
EDGE Analysis
Frazier went deep in the ninth inning to cut the Mets' deficit to three runs, but that was as close as it got. The 34-year-old is up to four homers, 11 RBI, 16 runs scored and a stolen base in 42 games between the Mets and the Rangers this season.

Frazier went 1-for-4 with two strikeouts Tuesday in the Mets' 5-2 win over the Rays.
EDGE Analysis
Starting for just the second time in six games, Frazier looks poised to finish the season as a part-time player while the Mets remain at full strength in the infield. Frazier has supplied a .599 OPS in 10 games since joining the Mets following an Aug. 31 trade from the Rangers.

Frazier went 3-for-5 with two doubles, a solo home run and three runs scored Thursday against the Yankees.
EDGE Analysis
Frazier got the start at third base as the team shuffled around their lineup to give Robinson Cano a day off. He delivered by smacking his first home run since returning to the Mets, while also coming around to score on two other occasions. Overall, Frazier is hitting .246/.321/.415 with three home runs, 14 runs scored and eight RBI across 131 plate appearances.

Frazier was sent from the Rangers to the Mets on Monday in exchange for a player to be named later, Ken Rosenthal of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
Frazier returns to an organization for which he hit .233/.316/.418 with 39 homers in 2018 and 2019. It's not clear what sort of role he'll play upon his return, as primary third baseman J.D. Davis is battling a hip issue but appears to be no worse than day-to-day. Frazier hit just .244/.322/.380 in 31 games in Texas.

Frazier went 1-for-2 with a two-run single and two walks in Monday's 3-2 win over Oakland.
EDGE Analysis
Frazier picked up his sixth and seventh RBI when he plated Nick Solak and Danny Santana with his single off Jesus Luzardo in the first inning. The veteran third baseman came into the game with just two hits in his previous 20 at-bats, so he will hope that reaching three times Monday can get him back on track.

Frazier is not in the lineup Sunday against the Mariners.
EDGE Analysis
Frazier started the last seven games and went 4-for-26, so he'll head to the bench for Sunday's series finale. Isiah Kiner-Falefa returns to third base with Yadiel Rivera starting at shortstop since Elvis Andrus (back) is on the injured list.

Frazier is not in the starting nine Saturday night against the Rockies, Levi Weaver of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
Frazier reportedly has been dealing with some minor soreness in his quad and approached manager Chris Woodward to ask for the night off. The soreness is nothing to be concerned about as Frazier also is just 1-for-9 lifetime against Saturday's starter German Marquez. Look for Frazier to return to the lineup Sunday afternoon in the series finale.
